Trusting that the subject may not be thought entirely out of place in the Transactions of the Royal Society of Tasmania or altogether uninteresting to its members, I have ventured to throw together a few brief notices of the Science of Astronomy as known amongst the ancient Jews, taking encouragement from the circumstance, that as a lineal descendant of that people I may possess readier access to their records than a stranger could have.
